Poland Beekeepers Win Ban on Monsanto's GMO!

Banned in Poland following protests by beekeepers who showed the corn was killing honeybees. Poland is the first country to formally acknowledge the
link between Monsanto’s genetically engineered corn and the Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) that’s been devastating bees around the world

Its good to see some people and countries starting to stand up to Monsanto. The bee is an integral part of life on earth. I dont think we would last
long without it. If this damage to bees has been knowingly done for money. The people responsible should be arrested... I guess they think they are
like the bankers and do what they want to.

I can't believe more bee farms haven't got involved, especially here in the US. There are just so many benefits from bees, with the natural
products they produce, that we really can't live without them.
Go Poland!

I repeadedly ask people to go back to the original source of the story to stop the "chinese whispers" mutations that happen every time a website
takes a story from elsewhere and puts their own twist on it.

Your link, project.nsearch, has taken the story from a
wordpress blog.

And if you'd botherd to check your sources you'd know this story is WRONG, because no such ban has been put into place.
There is no ban.. yet.
It is a proposal.
Draft document, open for public inspection.

And your story is also out of date.
The Polish Chancellery of the Prime Minister has already posted an update on the situation.

Dialogue about GMO: we answer new questions

Can the government guarantee that the ban on cultivation of MON810 maize will be introduced still in April?

We can proceed according to the law. It will be possible to introduce the ban ... after prior approval from the European Commission has been obtained.

The problem, says Haefeker, has a number of causes, one being the varroa mite, introduced from Asia, and another is the widespread practice in
agriculture of spraying wildflowers with herbicides and practicing monoculture. Another possible cause, according to Haefeker, is the controversial
and growing use of genetic engineering in agriculture.

It is very obvious now that Monsanto is what is causing the bee colony die offs. Given that Monsanto has just bought the world's largest bee
research firm, doesn't that tell us something? Doesn't that make it quite clear that the owners and executives of Monsanto are well aware of what
their crap products do? I think the writing is on the wall. Monsanto needs a full investigation and audit, they need to be raided.

yeah it doesn't take much insight to see potential problems when the engineers at monsanto, wont allow GMO foods to be served in their own cafeteria.

Don't forget our own iniative here in the USA --- California gets to vote on the ballot in Nov-12 to have GMO's labelled... (that should help drive
down GMO production for the whole of the USA if it passes. Monsanto is going to spend millions to mis-inform the public to get this defeated (they've
done this before over here in other states) .. the pro-label lobby needs all the support it can get right now... our bee population is in dire
trouble, can we afford it if California doesn't say yes to labelling.

Remeber In 2009, President Obama appointed Michael Taylor as a senior adviser for the FDA. Consumer groups protested the appointment because Taylor
had formerly served as a vice president for Monsanto. Neither party is going to do anything other than continue to rubber stamp more and more of their
modified products.
